“We analyze the performance of a quantum computer architecture combining a small processor and a storage unit. By focusing on integer factorization, we show a reduction by several orders of magnitude ...

No one knew when the day would come when it would be possible to break through RSA encryption using a quantum computer, but on December 23, 2022, a team of Chinese researchers announced on the open ...

Scientists have discovered a way to leverage emerging brain-like computer architectures for an age-old number-theoretic problem known as integer factorization. U.S. Army Research Laboratory scientists ...

RSA cryptography, which is one of the typical public key cryptosystems, is a cryptosystem based on the fact that it is difficult to factor a composite number with a large number of digits into prime ...

Encryption, the transformation of data into a form that prevents anyone unauthorized from understanding that data, is a fundamental technology that enables online commerce, secure communication, and ...

ESET's Cassius Puodzius takes an in-depth look at cryptography, exploring quantum computing (one of the resources in the toolkit of cryptanalysts). One of the resources in the toolkit of cryptanalysts ...

Computer scientist Peter Gutmann tells The Reg why it's 'bollocks' The US National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) has been pushing for the development of post-quantum cryptographic ...
